This will be the project log for my currently unnamed lizard daemons. I am hoping to have this army finished in time for Adepticon.
Fluff is still a little rough, but here goes.....(if you don't want to read it, scroll down the page for pics of the first minis):
The (unnamed, still thinking of one) are a very small xenos race, who's numbers are currently at around the 1,000,000 mark. They bear a strong resemblance to reptilian creatures, with scaled bodies, flickering tongues, and cold blood. The communicate with each other by a series of eerie clicks, whistles, and grunts. They are a primitive race, enslaved by the cruel Imperium to work on mining worlds. As a result of this, they have a hate of all other living things, and that hate and anger has been boiling together for so long, that when a small group of them attempted a revolution, their fury was so great that it attracted the attention of Khorne. This revolution quickly faltered, but not before hundreds of Imperials were slain by a mere handful of (post lizard-daemon name here).
A certain very powerful and influential (insert lizard daemon name here) by the name of Xch-Ti-Jx-Tqk (pronounced itch-tee-jach-tech) began hearing whispers in his head, whispers of conquest, of battle, and most of all, revenge. Led by this mysterious force, who he had no way of knowing was Khorne, he constructed a great statue of the (insert lizard-daemons name here)'s god, known as Fegrym (a merciless, battle hungry god), hidden from the watchful eyes of the Imperium. When this was finished, thousands of (insert name here) rallied to this monument of defiance. The Inquisition was send to investigate this strange happening. Upon seeing what had happened, and fearing revolution, forces were dispatched to quell the uprising. Within a few weeks, the poorly-equipped (insert name here) were beaten back, and merely a few thousand remained. Cornered and seeing no other course of action, Xch-Ti-Jx-Tqk offered himself and his followers up as a sacrifice to the mysterious voice he had heard, in return for their lives. His body crumbled into dust, and the statue which had started the rebellion began to heat up. The bodies of the (insert name here) began to warp and mutate, their long-pent up anger being released, having physical changes on their body. The statue, which had been possessed by a might Bloodthirster, stepped off it's dais, and roared a might battle cry. The now mindless, insane killing machines that had once been the (insert name here) rallied to him, and they cut a path through the Imperial forces.
Their were a smaller group of the (insert name here), known as the (insert other name here), which resembled their brethren, but were much smaller and had slightly greater intelligence. Deeming they weren't worthy for combat, Khorne ignored them, hoping they would be slaughtered by the Imperials upon being left behind. However, Tzeentch also saw an opportunity, that the (insert lizard daemon name here) would need a form of escaping from the planet. Thus, he gifted the (insert other name here) with the ability to open portals for the (insert lizard-daemon name here) to go from planet to planet. Unable to deny how important this was, the (insert other name here) were spared by whom the (insert name here) believed to be Fegrym, but was actually a Bloodthirster.
Having escaped the Imperium, the (insert name here) are now cutting a bloody path of revenge across the galaxy, intent on destroying every form of life, or dying in the attempt.
Picture time! first up, Fegrym, counts-as Skarbrand:
Next two test counts-as bloodletters:
Enjoy!!! I still need a name, C&C welcome.
